The top two streaming services won’t be dominating the Golden Globes this year, despite the investments Netflix and Amazon have made into funding their own original content. In fact, Netflix is having a down year — with just five TV nominations, that’s the lowest number of nods it’s received since entering the race three years ago, Variety notes.
